VALENTINE'S ANTHOLOGY COVER!!!

Received the cover to the Valentine Anthology (Five Hearts) coming out February 14th from Secret Cravings Publishing. Mine is called Lost in the Sea of You, one of five stories. Until that day, anyone who joins the SCP Book Club, The Cravings Club or The Paranormal Cravings Club, and you will get a copy for FREE! Check it out!

BLURB:


He found the boat in late afternoon, on a February day as cold and dry as it gets in Maine. That’s how the adventure began for Mikael Larson, ex-Army, relatively new sheriff and unattached man in a small town. Starting uneventfully at home, by the time he walked into the station, the day turned weird on the way to unexplainable and a lifetime of love satisfied in death.



EXCERPT:


It was Valentine’s Day night and he blew off the idea as Cupid playing tricks on him. Tempting him to find love again. But, that’s all it was, a fantasy. Loving again was too soon. Not after the breakup with Paula. Maybe four months after a long-term relationship dissolved was more than enough time to get back to dating again for some men, but not him. The so-called love of his life didn’t want to follow him to the ends of the earth or even to Maine when he told her his plans to apply for the position. She refused to leave Alabama. “I have friends and family here. I’m not going to some town without a mall and freeze my ass off to boot.”

That was the whole crux of the matter in the end. She liked to shop, and shop and shop. The last he heard, she hooked up with a high-powered attorney in Birmingham who could give her everything she wanted. Enough lonely nights had been spent pining for Paula.
As he viewed the angel-on-earth with awe—the high cheekbones, straight nose, heart-shaped face—his throat went dry. His ex-girlfriend never looked that beautiful sleeping, or any other woman he bedded, for that matter. Something appealing, seductive and outright helpless had him all twisted inside. Suppressed passion? Him or her? Both? He burned for her and if his growing erection was any indication of how the mere sight of the woman affected him, what would she do awake? Her mouth fell open slightly as she rolled to her side, and it took enormous amounts of self-control not to lean over and kiss her rosy full lips. Time seemed to slow and the image of him stripping her naked again ran through his mind.

He shook off the haze clouding his brain to view the sleeping beauty in his bedroom. He couldn’t stop the low groan that shuddered up from his chest as he raked his gaze along the curves of her concealed body. He began to imagine his palms running across her breasts, pausing to rub the pink-tipped nipples until they hardened like pebbles. He wanted her, to caress the curves of her wet and willing body. He imagined dragging his mouth over hers, kissing with passion as his hard cock plundered her soft pussy over and over until they were both hot, sweaty and satisfactorily exhausted.

Damn it! What am I thinking? Disgust hit him square in the face. Had he gone too long without sex that he’d force his attentions on a woman he didn’t know? Lusting after a helpless woman sleeping in his bed was crazy. He needed to get out more.

WEEKEND DIRTY DOZEN 1/20 - 1/22


So I thought I'd continue the Dirty Dozen with the short story, Nightfall: Fantasies Fulfilled. Last time I did an excerpt from Katie's Fantasy and this weekend I'll do Cassidy's.


FOUR WOMEN, FOUR FANTASIES, ONE NIGHT
Come on an erotic ride in a 1976 Bubble Gum Pink Cadillac Fleetwood limousine to a mysterious nightclub where the VIP package fulfills the fantasies of four women. Mistress Claudine, the owner and hostess at Nightfall, invites each woman in for her choice of pleasure. Beware, no fantasy is beyond reach once night falls.

CASSIDY’S FANTASY
Accompany Cassidy Morgan as she discovers how one night with a dark and deliciously dangerous man satisfies the craving to be claimed—to experience and learn the meaning of belonging to a vampire.
 
With the scene over, Cassidy feels disappointment that the time ended. As the night falls into morning, a new man walks into her life. In the end, will she get more than she paid for?
 
EXCERPT:
The muscular arms straining through the silky fabric folded across his chest, and he stared at her until she found herself getting lightheaded again. “Who are you little one? Breaking into my bedchamber is an offense. Were you here to kill me while I slept?”

What a strange question to ask. Caught off-guard, she didn’t know exactly how to answer. “No, but, you’re perfect,” she breathed softly, her clit throbbing in appreciation of his exquisite beauty.

“Then who are you?” The stunning vampire approached with slow, deliberate steps, searing her with steel-gray eyes that glistened with desire. As he stood at the edge of the bed, the only barrier between them the thin fabric of the silk-like chemise she wore.

“Ca…Cassidy. Cassidy Morgan. What’s your name?”

So here is my new cover for A Vampire in Paris, due out in about a month from Secret Cravings Publishing. This is the second book in the Forces of Beauty Series, the first was The Cougar and Her Vampire.

Blurb:

The two unlikely pair work together playing a dangerous game of cat-and-mouse not only with each other, but battle an evil ancient vampire determined to take Camille as his consort. Somewhere along the journey, Camille and Ramsey are surprised by the physical attraction that develops between them, denying the powerful pull.

Just when the two lovers think their love can be forever...Fate steps in to challenge the power of their love.

Hope everyone had a wonderful holiday and now that the new year is off and running full out, I thought I'd jump in and give everyone a taste of my short story I just finished and subbed. This is the second in a series. The first is in editing and should have a cover soon.

Here's the blurb for the entire series:


Tagline: Four Women, Four Fantasies. The Night Falls for One.



FOUR WOMEN, FOUR FANTASIES, ONE NIGHT

As the night falls into morning, will she get the chance to make that wish come true?

DIRTY DOZEN EXCERPT:

“I desire to be inside during yer release,” he whispered against her lips, nipping gently at the delicate flesh. He kissed her thoroughly as he rose above her and reached down took in hand his cock and positioned it at the opening of her moist heat, the tip lightly grazing the wetness there. When her wet folds enveloped the head of his shaft he paused. He slowly pushed deeper inside her body, a determined movement of an inch at a time. When he fully seated himself, he pulled back then thrust deep. They were a perfect fit, she thought and he filled her with a fullness she’d never had the privilege to indulge before. They both groaned with pleasure.
“Oh yes, just like that. Don’t stop.”
     Pumping his hips between her legs, she squeezed and flexed her inner muscles clamping around his hard shaft. Katie wrapped her legs around his waist and clutched at his shoulders as they moved together. They found their rhythm immediately, as if they’d been lovers many times rather than this first time.
